Download or read book Let Justice Descend written by Lisa Black and published by Kensington Books. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forensics expert Maggie Gardiner and Cleveland detective Jack Renner believe in delivering justice. One follows the rules. The other follows a darker path . . . Three days before a key election, U.S. Senator Diane Cragin is electrocuted on her own doorstep—a shocking twist in an already brutal political race. The obvious culprit is Cragin’s rival Joey Green, a city official who’s had his hand in every till in town for the past twenty years. But after discovering a fortune in cash in Cragin’s safe, Maggie and Jack suspect they’ve stepped into a much bigger conspiracy—and they’d better watch their backs. Dogged by a reporter on the verge of discovering the truth about Jack’s deadly brand of justice, Maggie and Jack plow through a city seething with corruption. As one murder leads to another, and another, their only chance to stop a killer requires trusting each other. Easier said than done . . . Praise for Lisa Black and Her Gardiner and Renner Thrillers “A must read!” —Charles Todd “Black keeps the suspense high throughout.” —Publishers Weekly “Well-plotted and paced . . . with a pair of intriguing protagonists." —Booklist “One of the best storytellers around.” —Tess Gerritsen

Book excerpt: The bible is full of mysterious ideas and metaphysical concepts that are complex enough to turn our ways upside down . Though , some schools of thoughts put their heads on the block to defend the accuracy of the holy book ; but influenced , at the same time by the spiritual presence of God and the traditional effigy of idolatry , that accuracy is flooded by a stream of doctrines , dogma , norms and traditions . So the author of this book has developed an elaborate rationalization which hold that the code of ethics embodied in the bible produced the humorous theories of nations and peoples that are designed to retard mens understanding of the scriptures . In keeping with the views of religious leaders , and through investigative observations of the scanty knowledge of many teachers of the scriptures , the author has found evidence of a combination of logic and legend .

Book Synopsis Heaven on Earth: The Order and Meaning of Mass by : Ralph Barnett
Download or read book Heaven on Earth: The Order and Meaning of Mass written by Ralph Barnett and published by eSoup Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-22 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Catechism of the Catholic Church encourages parents to catechize their children: · Parents’ duty to educate their children is instinctive and inalienable. · Parents have the first responsibility for educating their children. · Parents’ role in education is so important it is near impossible to offer an adequate substitute. · By marriage, parents receive the responsibility of evangelizing their children. · Parents educate their children to fulfill God's law. · As “first heralds," parents should initiate their children into the mysteries of the faith. · Education in the faith by parents should begin in the child's earliest years. · Family catechesis precedes other forms of religious instruction in the faith. But . . . catechize on what and how? As a cradle Catholic, father, grandfather, layperson, and ardent student of our Faith, I offer a suggestion based on common sense . . . and a book series. “We’re living through the greatest loss of faith in the history of the Catholic Church,” a refrain reverberating thru Catholic America. Likely, you are familiar with the statistics: · 25% percent decline in Mass attendance. · 15% of churches closed and/or consolidated. · 65% of Catholics do not believe in the Real Presence. · Catholicism, the largest Christian creed followed closely by fallen away Catholics. America’s religious decline is not new. Experts claim, “Christianity has been on decline since the removal of prayer from public schools in 1962.” Catholic school enrollment declined concurrently. Yet prayer was not removed from Catholic schools. Predictably, Mass attendance followed. What changed? Catholic authorities proffered explanations and recommendations; none of which stemmed the tide . . . a sure sign the root cause was not rightly identified. “What changed” was the equivalent of removing the pillar of prayer from public schools . . . Mass was removed from Catholic catechesis - school, CCD, RCIA, adult formation, ambo, and domestic church. A cursory look at a Baltimore Catechism, the 1950-60s field manual for Catholics, reveals a 30-page segment, “Catechism of the Mass,” immersing students in liturgical details. A cursory look at current Catholic curricula reveals a paucity of information on Mass ranging from a few paragraphs in texts for schools and homeschool to “take home” trifolds for CCD, RCIA, etc. Is Mass that important? Did you know Mass . . . Is the only sacrifice perfect, pleasing, and acceptable to God? Is the most sacred function of the Church, surpassing all others in efficacy? Is the Church’s greatest prayer? Is the Church’s #1 effort to save souls? Is the same sacrifice Christ made on the Cross? Is the perfect answer to prayer as it brings mercy and salvation Christ won for us? Is required attendance every Sunday and six Holy Days a year but Communion only once? Is the Source and Summit of our Faith? Is Heaven on Earth? Seemingly, Mass is the answer to everything integral to Catholicism. Why is it not taught in Catholic education settings? How do we reverse the tide? Catholics must re-assess school, CCD, RCIA, adult formation, school and homeschool catechesis to make space for a deep dive into Mass. To fulfill the need, I submit a book series, “Catechism Curriculum for Catholic Homeschool,” which includes a 163-page text accompanied by a workbook with fifty-one lesson reviews containing 1,600+ questions. The series is not a theological or academic treatise but a user-friendly, step-by-step guide to Mass for homeschool catechesis unlike anything available elsewhere. Author’s Promise: “Your family will never ever go to church, attend Mass, or receive Communion the same way again.”

Book Synopsis Blessed the Merciful by : Benjamin A Vima
Download or read book Blessed the Merciful written by Benjamin A Vima and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2016-02-19 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The books title is taken from Jesus Sermon on the Mount: Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Expounding in detail in this book Rev. Vima stresses the Scriptural fact that at the end of disciples life their merciful acts are the ones that would covet the crown of heavenly blessedness as the Judge would pronounces to them, Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food The author also explains very elaborately the Biblical term CHESED as the remarkable backdrop to the Christian merciful deeds. He continues to augment his contention on CHESED by telling the readers about Jesus longing of his disciples to be perfect as their heavenly Father by performing merciful deeds and by performing those acts perfectly by imitating Gods CHESED of mercy, justice and fidelity. Author writes in his Introduction: This book is nothing but an outcome of my strong belief in an eternal fact of living a CHESED-oriented life: Without Gods CHESED we cannot survive but without our reciprocal CHESED we cannot be what we are designed to become. As the Church celebrates the Jubilee Year of Mercy, author encourages the readers to listen and follow Pope Francis who, referring to the beatitudes, is quoted saying: If the church does not assume the sentiments of Jesus, it is disoriented, it loses its sense. Fr. Vima also dreams that those who read this book will be more inspired and sincere in their works of mercy during this year and the years to come.

Book Synopsis An 8 Day Ignatian Retreat for Priests, Religious, and Lay Ministers by : Thomas P. Rausch
Download or read book An 8 Day Ignatian Retreat for Priests, Religious, and Lay Ministers written by Thomas P. Rausch and published by Paulist Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost five hundred years, the little book The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola has been an important source for Christian prayer-life. However, many Church ministers (priests, deacons, religious, and laypersons) do not have the time to make the full thirty-day Ignatian retreat with a spiritual director. This helpful resource seeks to lead a retreatant prayerfully into the heart of an Ignatian retreat by using contemplations and themes from the Spiritual Exercises as well as other meditations on the life of Jesus-but within an eight-day time frame. With a particular focus on ministry, both ordained and nonordained, the short chapters present mysteries from the life of Jesus and considerations that correspond to the dynamics of the Exercises. They represent a preparation for prayer, not to instruct but to move the imagination and hopefully the heart. An appendix offers additional scriptural texts. An 8 Day Ignatian Retreat for Priests, Religious, Deacons, and Lay Ministers enables busy and hardworking Church ministers to apply the Ignatian insights to their own interior life, which will result in rejuvenation and growth in their pastoral ministry.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author Lisa Black launches a pulse-pounding new series with a taut, compelling forensic thriller that introduces Dr. Ellie Carr and Dr. Rachael Davies, who must combine their expertise to solve deadly crimes . . . When D.C. crime scene analyst Dr. Ellie Carr is called to investigate the heartrending case of a missing baby, she’s shocked to discover that the child’s mother is her own cousin. Close during their impoverished childhoods, Ellie and Rebecca eventually drifted apart. Rebecca is now half of a Washington power couple, and she and her wealthy lobbyist husband, Hunter, have been living a charmed life in an opulent mansion—until their infant son is taken. “Every contact leaves a trace.” That’s the basic principle of forensic science followed by pathologist Dr. Rachael Davies. A reluctant Ellie is teamed with Rachael, employed by Hunter to help with the investigation. Rachael is assistant dean at the prestigious Locard Forensic Institute, named in honor of the French criminologist who inspired the profession. But in this case, discovering where those traces lead quickly becomes a dangerous journey through a web of greed and deadly ambition. At first antagonists, then allies, Ellie and Rachael race to find the baby alive and bring the kidnappers to justice. What seemed like a simple ransom grab reveals links to a lobbying effort to loosen regulations on a billion-dollar gaming empire. Unless they can piece together the evidence before the Senate hearing, Rebecca’s son—and others like him—will face an unthinkable fate . . . “This solid series launch from bestseller Black introduces forensics experts Ellie Carr and Rachael Davies…Black packs the novel with fascinating details for crime scene buffs, who will eagerly await the next case for the intrepid CSIs.” —Publishers Weekly "With her first-hand knowledge of forensics added to her skill as a writer, Lisa Black doesn’t miss. Red Flags is a real nail-biter, a can’t-miss thrill ride from start to finish." —Jeff Lindsay, author of the Dexter and Riley Wolfe series
Book Synopsis The Inclusive Bible by : Priests for Equality (Organization)
Download or read book The Inclusive Bible written by Priests for Equality (Organization) and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While this new Bible is certainly an inclusive-language translation, it is much more: it is a re-imagining of the scriptures and our relationship to them. Not merely replacing male pronouns, the translators have rethought what kind of language has built barriers between the text and its readers. Seeking to be faithful to the original languages, they have sought new and non-sexist ways to express the same ancient truths. The Inclusive Bible is a fresh, dynamic translation into modern English, carefully crafted to let the power and poetry of the language shine forth--particularly when read aloud--giving it an immediacy and intimacy rarely found in traditional translations of the Bible. The Inclusive Bible contains both the Old and the New Testaments.
